S & B’s Directional/Classic MLB 23 Sliders

Re: S & B’s Directional/Classic MLB 23 Sliders

What are you have SP stamina at? I have it at 2 when I sim.

I have sp stamina at 5 so that might explain it.
If at 2 are you still seeing realistic innings pitched totals?

I’m in a middle of a game right now against the Giants. I’m playing the last series of the season. So I can only look at their stats right now.

Alex Wood - 33 GS - 150.1 IP - 1 CG
Logan Webb - 32 GS - 186 IP - 0 CG
Anthony DeSclafani - 32 GS - 178 IP - 0 CG
Alex Cobb - 32 GS - 179 IP - 0 CG
Sean Manaea - 31 GS - 153.1 IP - 0 CG

The only thing that I messed up on is I had sim injuries at 2 so there wasn’t much injuries across the league.

And bullpen stamina is at 5 when simming?

Yes, that is correct.

Re: S & B’s Directional/Classic MLB 23 Sliders

Anyone else see this bull****???

But in any roster you use or already have a franchise going that Wander Franco and Julio Urias both now have a lock glitch face. I know they got into trouble probably won't play again, but that's the real world and in the video game world some guys might still want these players on there roster.

But there faces are correct on PS4 version.

Yeah, that is tough. Should be up to the user if they want to play them or do what they want with them. At least take them off new roster updates.

I wonder what they would have done if Jazz Chisholm or any future cover athlete gets in trouble?

Re: S & B’s Directional/Classic MLB 23 Sliders

Dang, man. I appreciate the work put into this. I'm trying to find the right sliders for me.. I want challenging yet still fun (which maybe is my problem). Anyway, I've had a few problems with these but mainly and maybe it's not exclusive to the sliders but just the Show in general. I'm playing on Metered and with the PCI

I feel like there are just way too many foul balls.. Like 25 pitches an inning with Luis Castillo on the mound.. Not sure where to best adjust to where I won't just strike out every single batter and feel like there isn't a challenge. I seem to have that struggle in general with the Show. Either I'm so elite, every game ends in a shut out or the exact opposite and like I'm a AA pitcher in the major leagues.. I'm giving up 4-5 doubles and two HRs an inning.

Hitting-wise things feel okay.. I've added to the timing because I just wasn't getting hits..

I'm also feeling like stealing might be too easy but might need more time with that.


Thanks for taking the time on this.. It's crazy how unfun this game can be when the dynamics don't feel right.

You can try lowering foul frequency to 0. That might help a little with strikeouts. It should put more balls being fair but it probably will make more swing and misses too. So there is a tight balance there. With the strikeout issues this year, I feel like man they should be fouling some of these off to stay alive. But then sometimes they foul too many off and then eventually strikeout. And I'm like if they could just put one of those foul balls fair it be perfect.

You can always try to lower the base stealing success rate.

Re: S & B’s Directional/Classic MLB 23 Sliders

These slider are amazing. Have completely rejuvenated my enjoyment of this game to a whole bother level.

I noticed a few home runs that went 440+ feet fro Eugenio Suarez and JP Crawford. Guys who might step on one here and there but I don’t think they hit any over 440 this year.

Have you noticed HR distance being inflated on your slider set?

Thank you for distributing this.

I haven’t noticed but probably just didn’t pay attention to be honest. The power slider would affect how far the ball goes but if you are seeing a realistic amount of homeruns it’s not worth adjusting and messing other stuff up.

Thanks for trying these. Glad you are enjoying them.

Re: S & B’s Directional/Classic MLB 23 Sliders

I’m running a Blue Jays franchise and after 10 games, I’m 9-1 but I’m noticing I log 10+ hits almost every game. I’ve lowered both power and contact and it doesn’t seem to be having much of an effect.

What am I doing wrong?

Re: S & B’s Directional/Classic MLB 23 Sliders

I seem to be the only one that has issues with realistic home run numbers. My batting average is high and I don't strike out much, my players get really good swings very often on the ball but rarely leave the ballpark. This is the only thing I am lacking on and I'm not sure what settings to use.

I tried these sliders first and my offense was putrid, because of the low timing I think (definitely a skill issue) so I put timing to 5 and I am hitting well and a home run here and there but not realistic, still very low amount for the players I am using.

I've had this issue a lot, and I don't know if it is just me or slider issue but I will rack up 5-7 runs a game but none of my runs come via home run.

Any suggestions? I'd really like to have realistic stat lines for players like Julio Rodriguez and Bobby Witt Jr. at the end of a season.

Do you have user power at 6? That would make some of the would be doubles off the walls go over the wall.

I would maybe try to do timing at 2-3 if 0 is too low for you. That would raise your strikeouts a little if you are wanting that.

I would maybe first try raising pitch speeds. That might help without messing to much stuff up. You could also try raising CPU control to 6 and see if that helps.

Re: S & B’s Directional/Classic MLB 23 Sliders

I used these sliders for a month and man they played really well… I’m a statistic nerd so I want my games to play as close to real MLB games as possible and I’m the beginning they did but like anything once you get used to the game and get better you have to change stuff up a bit. I got as far as pitch speed to 8 before I just starting changing difficulty. I love that you keep the timing/classic though, I’m big on that as it makes things a little less user controlled. Waiting on OS to allow me to make my own post so I can post my legend sliders up. In the meantime keep the sliders coming!
